I guess you all know what Twitter http://www.twitter.com does [:)], otherwise see below:
I have created a small VB program interfacing with the Twitter webservice (API) and retrieving XML's files etc.

My Home Automation (Domotica) system can now send messages for all kind of events to Twitter.
For example if somebody call my frontdoor a Twitter message is send with a URL to the picture my system has taken of that person.
This is my Twitter Url http://twitter.com/bwired

Bwired on Twitter (with API)
Although its fun to connect stuff, i really dont see twitter as "wow" i mean i'am not going to write an update that i go to the loo or something like that you have your weblog, i rather read that. I was wondering to use it, can have it on my iphone too, but i also have a wordpress app on my iphone for my blog so i'am not yet "pulled".. but thats just my opinion. But besides that nice work as always.

I was thinking the same in the beginning and yes I don't want to know If you are taking a leak.
But for a closed group it's nice to know when the police has arrived
and for example If you are in Barcelona, you can quickly send nice links etc.
Regarding Domotica : For a closed group (wife and children), You can for example see the status of my house.
There are some nice options, and I'm following some interesting people with good ideas etc.
